Technologies

X-Crossbow Michelin
Northwave developed this all-mountain sole with Michelin Technical Soles. Inspired by two MTB tyres, the tread pattern features a large number of edges and smaller tread blocks for maximum traction on all surface and increased self-cleaning ability. This top-of-the-range sole is designed with the X-Crossbow double crossbow construction for incredible foot support and impressive shock absorption in the heel area. The inner insert gradually moulds to the foot for optimal stiffness when riding but enhanced comfort when walking, ensuring a top-flight response in any situation.

S.L.W.3 closing system
The micro metric system S.L.W. 3 (Speed Lace Winch) represents the evolution of the closure system. Maximum precision and modularity. The innovative step by step closure means you can tighten and enlarge the fit in a few moments. The side button provides a dual function: by pressing, it features a micro metric release and lifting it allows a complete and immediate opening of the shoe. More lightweight and thinner. The dial has been completely redesigned in size and weight, resulting in being significantly lighter and thinner. The external covering in soft touch material also makes the grip more effective. The ergonomic shape of the S.L.W. 3 ratchet follows the anatomy of the foot to make it really comfortable. The S.L.W. 3 ratchet is easily replaceable. The cables come from the best technology derived from the world of sailing.
